Illustration of a proposed uranium extraction facility in the Gulf of Mexico. Specially treated fibres would capture uranium dissolved in seawater as natural ocean currents move through the installation. The technology has so far been demonstrated on a small experimental scale, with Supercritical Materials targeting its first industrial-scale facility by 2033. Illustration: Supercritical Materials.

ArcelorMittal Hamburg GmbH operates Western Europe’s only steelworks equipped with this (The picture) type of direct reduction plant. Iron ore pellets are converted into metallic iron using a reducing gas instead of coke. The gas already consists of approximately 60 per cent hydrogen, making complete reduction with hydrogen a possible next step. If the hydrogen were produced through electrolysis powered exclusively by renewable electricity, the resulting production route could be almost free of carbon dioxide emissions. Photo: ArcelorMittal.
